Declared as the best madeleine flavor by my taste testers, these are fluffy, aromatic and vibrant. These Saffron and orange blossom infused madeleines are finished with a crunchy Amaretto (Apricot kernel Liquer) glaze. You know you can’t go wrong with it!
My signature pillowy soft Focaccia topped with spices, marinades , complimentary cheeses, seasonal ingredients and Umami laden fixings! Each is sheet 13” x 9” in dimension and serves 4-6 as a side.
Layers of devil’s cake using nutty Rye flour and sandwiched with a rich chocolate cremeux and finished with a delectable espresso Tahina (sesame paste) frosting. It’s as good as it sounds!
*It’s an 8” cake that serves 12-15
Think Portable Crème Brûlée - scented custardy Middle with a crunchy caramelized outer crust. Fresh Canèle is stuff of dreams. Originating from Bordeaux Region of France, this humble looking pastry is a true delight and dangerously addictive!
